Why IBS?

The Italian Bilingual School offers the following advantages:

• Highly skilled educators
• Conceptual development in two languages - English and Italian
• The development of bilingual, bicultural and biliterate students
• Empowering students for a global existence

The Italian Bilingual School is a primary school and is inclusive, co-educational and non-denominational.

The value of a bilingual and bicultural education goes well beyond the language. A bilingual education, within the context of a dynamic international community, will give your child a deep understanding and respect for other cultures and ways of thinking. In today's global economy, those who embrace diversity of thought will have a multitude of opportunities available to them.

Community

The Italian Bilingual School welcomes the support and involvement of parents within the school.

Through various channels we encourage parents to become part of the school community, further boosting support for your child.

• Social events
• Parent Teacher interviews
• Parent involvement in reading, art and craft, sporting events etc.
• Class mums and dads socials such a coffee morning with parents from your child's class.
• These kind of activities develop the school community as a whole and help extend the relationships that your children form with other children at our school.

Our 'open door' policy also adds to our community-building. We believe you should have access to the important professionals who are educating your child. Teachers are readily available at all times to discuss your child's social, emotional and academic needs.

Safety and Convenience

At IBS we provide a safe and happy environment for your child to learn within a supportive community.
The safety of your child is paramount at our school.
